Quote

"So many people live within unhappy circumstances and yet will not take the initiative to change their situation because they are conditioned to a life of security, conformity, and conservatism, all of which may appear to give one peace of mind, but when in reality nothing is more damaging to the adventurous spirit within a man than a secure future.

The very basic core of a man's living spirit is his passion for adventure.

The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun."
- in a letter from Alex McCandless as take from the book "Into the Wild" by Jon Krakauer



They are making a movie about this book now actually which I'm pretty excited about, it comes out next year. Paul gave me this book to read after which I passed on to Cole... I found it so intriguing and got me really thinking about what life is about, and whether we're living it right. I definitely recommend it.

While on the topic of books, Cole gave me the book "Tuesdays with Morrie" by Mitch Albom to read and it really helped me rethink what's important in life. Another must read. :)
